What is the gear ratio?
When discussing the various gear positions of a transfer case, Technician A says that when the transfer case is in low, the overall gear ratio is numerically increased. Technician B says that when the transfer case is in the high position, the vehicle operates in an overdrive mode due to the decrease in torque multiplication. Who is correct?
Which of the following gear ratios provides the highesttorque multiplication?a. 0.85 : 1b. 2.67 : 1c. 5.23 : 1d. 0.50 : 1
